We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed the awesome location, walkability to Aliʻi Drive, the nearby shops, restaurants, and beach, as well as the cleanliness, air conditioning, furnishings, and lanai.

Condo was in a perfect loacation. One block from oceanside shops, food and beautiful ocean views. Bed was confortable, air conditioners worked great. Closet was stocked with linens, sunscreen, beach chairs/blanket/snorkeling/water shoes. All came into great use! Easy entry, parking pass is in tbe condo, that was a challenge at first but propert manager was quick to respond. I read reviews about the ant like bugs. Yes, tvey are there but we didn't cook or prepare food, we kept items in fridge, table and top of fridge, so they didnt bother us. Great place for 2 people and would definitely rent again. Thank you!

Great location. We stayed here and didn’t use a car for the first few days of our trip - right in the heart of Kailua and across the street from the trolly stop. The space was clean and had everything we needed including beach chairs and umbrella. We loved spending nights out on the lanai.

Nice quick trip to Kona!

We had a great time in Kona. It was just a short trip over from Maui for us to do some diving. We enjoyed the location of the condo, perfect walking distance to a lot of amenities, which was great as we did not have a car. The condo was clean and cold! It was great to come back to after a long day of exploring.

Property is well located. Offering all amenities including snorkeling equipment. The appartment has been renovated and is very pleasant. My only recommendation would be to check the condo AC compressor which makes a lot of noice. The condo management team is very reactive and professionnal.

Nice time!

It was as described in listing. Once you figure out the back staircase to the complex getting onto the main road (Alii) was very easy. They had a new air mattress and towels, thank you. If you want actual beachtowels, bring your own. They had bath towels for the beach. Great selection of beach items! We enjoyed our time there!

Value accommodation in an ideal location

Kona Plaza was well situated, steps away from everything in town, yet it was easy to drive into. The property management is very detailed, their instructions are simple to follow, and they are communicative and responsive. The condo was well equipped with everything we could need and was kept organized and uncluttered. If you’re looking for a luxury accommodation, I would suggest this may not be the unit for you. However, if you are looking for practicality and location with good amenities at a reasonable price, this is it.

Amazing Location in Kailua-Kona

This condo was the best spot for our Christmas holiday with our kids. The pullout sofa was perfect for our 2 young kids (9 and 6) to share. We could not believe how great of a location the condo was. We walked to everything. There are so many great restaurants. The other visitors and residents in the building were so friendly, it was just unreal. We used the pool and it was clean and perfect for what we needed when we weren't at the beach or exploring the Big Island. The condo is perfectly equipped for a young family with beach chairs, a great kitchen, an AMAZING lanai and easy to check in and out. Mahalo for a wonderful holiday!
